FIVE. [accidental video]

[There's a video montage of Bruce doing science-y things: clipping the petals off of a bunch of long-stemmed white flowers, distilling the nectar through drips into beakers, running it through a lone cylindrical beaker on a homemade centrifuge-slash-turntable. He pricks a cut on his finger and puts the blood on a clean slide, then adds a few drops ( Read more... )

Only in the sense that I turn into a monster. But you knew that.

Gamma poisoning what causes it.

Oh.. So can this Mr. Blue help? That's what you're trying to determine I guess.

Good luck.

Don't know. Biochemist, so his specialty, but my blood is toxic. Taking a risk letting him have it.

Thanks.

Could he become infected from it?

No, not that simple a process. Could die from it.

So you were just 'lucky' then? That your system didn't reject it, I mean?

Wasn't intentional. Was supposed to be finding a way to prevent GAMMA sickness for army - I am an astrophysicist. Worked with Betty because she's in cellular biology, how we met.

It was... a fluke. Something unexplained, unpredictable. Why I'm so important for replicating it. Only figured out later was meant to be finding way to make supersoldiers all along.

Not to be blunt, but.

That really sucks.

Not much else to say, I know.

Woke up one day and entire life was different. Think you know how that feels.

Perfectly well.

See now why I'm so determined to find a cure? Has to be one out there.

I'm finding my cure for Rita's death. Or at least, some solace. I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for, in some form or another.

Can only hope.

For you, too. Things have to change sometime, Dex.

...change? Not for me.

You know it isn't the same. I can't just take an antiserum.

[ realizes that was harsh a beat after and recollects himself ]

How can you have hope for me, Bruce? You haven't accepted your Dark Passenger, and maybe that will save you from him, but there's no hope left for me.

Not... that. I'm not sure I honestly believe that I'll really find this cure anymore. I can't stop trying because there's - nothing else. I just still can't accept that I'll be like this forever.

I just meant - don't you ever want things to be different? Anything, not even-- don't you ever just think about it?
